  • Do coaster brakes always feel like crap?

    What exactly do you mean by crap? Just the brake, or the hub as a whole? The braking modulation?

    Over all they're average at best. You can usually adjust them a bit to make them weaker or stronger.

  • Not crap just not used to the sensation I guess. Feels like the cranks rotate a fair amount before engaging, And they are generally quite clunky when operating the brake.

    At the moment they work and it’s fairly easy to lock up the rear wheel. Wanted to know how others find the feel of them. Sounds like they are what they are

    I’ll read up and might try and improve it at some point
